I have always wondered why the meat free products always try to pretend to be meat products. Feels like its limiting factor in what plant based food could be. Make new and exciting things, and maybe people will be more likely to try them. Cos you if want a burger, youre just going to get a proper burger. But if you fancy something different, maybe a (insert original vegan dish here) is something people would be open to trying, without the limiting factor, which is usually “Its ok, but it doesnt taste like…”. Stop trying to make it taste like something else, and just focus on making it taste good in its own right.
Fucking hell, you people are weird as fuck about a strangers random wondering.
You’re looking at a specific niche within vegetarian / vegan products and argue that the aim of that specific niche (imitating meat) applies to all of the products? There are lots of those. But I don’t want to eat cereal with water, hence “oat milk” makes sense if you don’t want to contribute to animal exploitation. I don’t know why it’s so hard to understand for some people that you might like the taste of something yet don’t agree with the ethics behind it and then being this non-argument.
Because its NEVER going to be the thing you want it to be. So instead of trying to fool yourself, just embrace new things. Are you really so fucking weak minded that need food shaped and styled like burgers just to eat it???

Why do you give a shit what people like to eat without abusing animals? Let us eat things that look how we want it - it does not hurt your need of abusing animals.
I went vegetarian a couple years ago. Those substitutes made the transition a lot easier. Theres something about the flavor profile and texture thats familiar and enjoyable. The quality of meat alternatives has gotten a lot better over the last few years.

Great job missing the point
Veggie burgers have been around since the 1940s https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veggie_burger
